Since I started using firefox all my add ons get uninstalled for no reason from time to time. It's like the browser decides to wipe them all out and I have to reinstall them again, one by one. I tried creating an account and syncing, but the problem persists. And it happens on both my 2 computers.

What about the rest of your profile? Settings, bookmarks, history, passwords . . . .

Are these all add-ons, some of them? If some, are they the same ones?
